RUSH: Oh. "Five years after a budget-busting $3 billion was allocated to embryonic stem cell research, there have been no cures, no therapies and little progress. So supporters are embracing research they once opposed. California's Proposition 71 was intended to create a $3 billion West Coast counterpart to the National Institutes of Health, empowered to go where the NIH could not — either because of federal policy or funding restraints on biomedical research centered on human embryonic stem cells. Supporters of the California Stem Cell Research and Cures Initiative, passed in 2004, held out hopes of imminent medical miracles that were being held up only by President Bush's policy of not allowing federal funding of embryonic stem cell research (ESCR) beyond existing stem cell lines and which involved the destruction of embryos created for that purpose...,

6.4 billion fo H1N1 and 2/3’s of the doses are on a shelf.
I wonder if Michael J Fox regrets misleading all those American voters with his pro-democrat campaigning a few years back.
APOLOGIES TO EVERYONE FOR THE MISSPELLED TITLE. Four eye surgeries and a detached retina have taken their toll.

Cut- 10.5 Billion a year on Illegals aid for Health and Education
Cut- The costs of a prison population that’s over 50% illegals
Cut- stem cell Prop 17
We could balance our budget in about 8 months and with the surplus- build new schools and hospitals.
I spell like that half the time and I can see just fine.
No worries.
Conversely, there are many therapies that take a person’s own adult stem cells, and use them to cure many things they are suffering from, almost always without any kind of rejection issues that occur using other people’s cells in your body.
In fact bone marrow transplants are essentially adult stem cell transplants, and they do such careful donor selection, often from the same family, so that anti-rejection drugs don’t have to be taken forever after.
To regret an action, you would have to have a conscience.
I do not know of any Democratic leaders or actors with one of those. ;-)
Apparently, being a liberal means never having to admit you were WRONG.
Thanx.

Absolutely!
Everything liberals claimed would be cured by fetal stem cells, they previously claimed would be cured by fetal tissue.
“Apparently, being a liberal means never having to admit you were WRONG.”
Ain’t that the truth.
They do have a literal version of this, yes...the stem cells are filtered out of the donor’s blood and collected then given as a unit to the recipient to re-establish their own bone marrow.
Doubt it.
Pro life ping!
No problem. You were still much more accurate than the proponents of ESCR have ever been.
Using another person's stem cells in your body is a bit like putting a Chevy fuel pump in your Ford, it's a fine fuel pump, but it's not made for your car.
You may be able re-engineer it to make it fit and work, but why not just use a Ford fuel pump to begin with?
